Hi! Thank you for doing the job . I wish to try it out but it is impossible to download from Megaupload such large files... either it errors out, or the file in the end proves corrupted. Can we all ask you to upload it somewhere else? |

Hey, i've got a little problem with the bluetooth audio streaming. In advanced settings, i've changed into every bluetooth mode, but it doesen't work.
WenqiangBC5: No connection possible WenqiangBC6: Sound quality is really bad, but connection stays at any time. Feiyitong: Sound qualitiy is perfect, but disconnects automatically every 15sec. Reconnect after abort, works without problems. IVT_BC5: No connection possible Installed all updates, and changed the phone. But unfortunately it doesn't work. Is there a chance to have a stabile connection with good sound quality? The unit works without AUX cable + without optic cable (not installed). Please help me, it's the only way i want to listen music in my car |

Think I have the same sort of issue of recently changed my unit to an anti glare 8.1android screen. Before I could use my idrive controller to control left, right and select in car with my old unit for CarPlay etc. Now this function not working with the the new software. Where is this software released for these units? |

you are better off buying the $45 idrive knob replacement. looks like OEM but when you press it down, it activates a touchpad on it and a mouse in android so you can move around in apps |

Is your FW ROM any faster than the stock? I've messed around with different FW versions but have settled on the OEM one shipped with my unit (7.1.1 X3 F25 from AliExpress). I use Nova Launcher to go straight into a clean UI but also utilise Tasker to run some tweaks to allow this and still have BT and WIFI working. Also you mentioned the brightness / auto dimming w/ headlight ssue - what are your thoughts on this? |

I have looked at the dimming stuff and it seems that auto dimming it's on top of the regular dimming stuff. E.g. you can send 100% brightness to the MCU (like the notification bar does), but the auto dimming comes on top of that and seems to be MCU only. Now (part of the) MCU is probably a Renasas RL78 microprocessor with automotive functions (F series), since I've found java functions that communicate with this chip over a serial port connection that were named rl78_ something. I was planning on decoding / disassembling the firmware, but this will take some time as I'm totally unfamiliar with the chip and tools. The nicest thing would be a software trigger (e.g. serial port command) to disable the auto dimming feature, but I'm not sure it's in the firmware. I might go another way and putting a CAN bus filter / mask in between the CAN bus lines to filter out the light commands. If I build this around an Arduino I can also do other cool stuff on the CAN bus like opening / closing windows, fold mirrors, etc. all from software. Now there are send CAN bus command functions in Eventcenter.apk that would maybe allow me to do this, but with an arduino I have more control. |

In an ideal world, the coding would be editable to allow something like Twilight APK to control when the screen dims, perhaps in combination with Tasker. Looking forward to your thought! BTW I run a 7.1.1 unit @ 8.8" for a BMW X3 F25, but I feel they all run on similar firmware anyway. |

It's all yours! I'll throw in some beers too if you can prevent the auto dimming feature - a whole crate if you can get Twilight to control the brightness!

Patches / patched eventcenter.apk sources can be found here:
https://github.com/jspuij/EventCenter.apk Ideally somebody with more time would write an app that enables / disables features. I can do the smali patching. |

I have a BMW is a F11 2015 with NBT
I was thinking on buying one of the new Head units with Snapdragon 625 + 4GB + 64GB Rom with the new ID7 Android 9 Still a bit confuse if the updates are like my previous headunit from HA Dasaia on E46. What is your feedback on the latest modules with android 8.0 and 8.1 Sound quality, radio reception and so on. What is your opinion, does it worth it ? Thank you |

It does not automatically change the audio output. should I modify something else in android? I've only managed to use it with this music application, modifying its audio output to USB dac, it sounds great. How to tell Android to send all its sound through USB DAC?
